PowerSync Sync Service API

The PowerSync Service exposes a streaming sync protocol over HTTP/WebSocket that client SDKs connect to using JWT authentication. Clients submit their current bucket state and the service streams real-time checkpoint and operation data back, enabling incremental SQLite sync for offline-first apps.
